Sound will cut out momentarily (usually for no more than a second). The skip is always accompanied by multiples of this message in the /var/log/messages file: Nov 23 22:33:06 hostname ALSA sound/pci/via82xx.c:737: invalid via82xx_cur_ptr, using last valid pointer Nov 23 22:33:06 hostname ALSA sound/pci/via82xx.c:737: invalid via82xx_cur_ptr, using last valid pointer Nov 23 22:33:06 hostname ALSA sound/pci/via82xx.c:737: invalid via82xx_cur_ptr, using last valid pointer These messages appear in the log file once or twice a minute although the sound only noticable cuts out every few minutes . Very annoying on an HTPC. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- brentcfisher - 12-08-04 17:02 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Debug produced using via-pointer-fix2 patch: Dec 8 09:03:16 samwise fail: idx = 0/16, lastpos = 0x1000 (idx=0,size=0x1000,count=0x0), bufsize2 = 0x8000, offsize = 0x0, size = 0x1000, count = 0xfe0 Dec 8 09:03:16 samwise fail: idx = 0/16, lastpos = 0x1000 (idx=0,size=0x1000,count=0xfe0), bufsize2 = 0x8000, offsize = 0x0, size = 0x1000, count = 0xfe0 Dec 8 09:03:16 samwise fail: idx = 0/16, lastpos = 0x1000 (idx=0,size=0x1000,count=0xfe0), bufsize2 = 0x8000, offsize = 0x0, size = 0x1000, count = 0xfe0 Dec 8 09:03:16 samwise fail: idx = 0/16, lastpos = 0x1000 (idx=0,size=0x1000,count=0xfe0), bufsize2 = 0x8000, offsize = 0x0, size = 0x1000, count = 0xfc0 Dec 8 09:03:16 samwise fail: idx = 0/16, lastpos = 0x1000 (idx=0,size=0x1000,count=0xfc0), bufsize2 = 0x8000, offsize = 0x0, size = 0x1000, count = 0xfc0 -Brent ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tiwai - 12-09-04 15:35 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- How about the third patch?
